By changing the gate-source voltage of the NMOS transistor, I can alter the resistance in the triode region. The transistor becomes a voltage-controlled resistor.

I don't understand how it affects the high pass filter and the \$I_{\text{DS}}\$ current when I decrease the voltage to 2.0 V. enter image description here

I decreased the voltage here in V2 and I got this graph. enter image description here

And for the V2 = 3.3V I have got this result.

enter image description here

Where I can see that the voltage to the gate doesn't affect the high pass filter.

  • What happens if we now change V2's DC voltage to 2V rather than 3.3V? When we decrease the voltage of the DC to 2.0V we go to the lower state of the user characteristics graph of the transistor where we have a smaller slop. enter image description here. And we know that the slop depends 1/R and the resistance for 2V will be higher than the resistance for 3.3 Volts. And from the Ohm's law we can find out why it influences the high pass filter.
